Abstract:
Abstract Sufficient safety of the parts, which determines the safety of the system specified by the technical assignment, is the necessary quality of the project, the subject of the design engineer’s attention and the customer’s requirement. An extensive task is the collection of data for iterative refinement of the resource for project details in a probabilistic aspect. It can be significantly reduced when using approximate methods for estimating the resource at intermediate stages of refining the project to the required resource with a calculated probability of failure-free operation. Thus,

Abstract:
As reliability is one of the key factors in product quality, which is closely linked to customer satisfaction, the ability of companies to design products which will be reliable is key to their future market success. The paper presents a new design for reliability (DFR) method which assesses the suitability of mechanical system design configurations during the early stages of the design process. The method presented in this paper is a development of the work of Stephenson (1995) in which he sought to assess the reliability of technical mechanisms in large scale heavy plant equipment.

The rst problem concerns the question of identi ability within certain subclasses of Doyen and Gaudoin's recently proposed generalised competing risks framework. Bedford and Lindqvist have shown identi ability for one such subclass - a two component series system in which, every time a component fails it is restored to a state "as good as new", while the other component is restored to a state "as bad as old".

Reliability estimation of highly reliable components, subsystems and systems has become very difficult using the traditional accelerated life tests. Therefore, there is a need to develop new models that will determine the reliability of such components, systems or subsystems, one of which is modeling a long term performance degradation. The proposed method is more general than any of the existing ones. It can be applied to any system, subsystem or component whose degradation over time can be identified and measured.
